As there is no word of a new anime series could this point to a new Generation??

Seviper33 January 17th, 2010 7:33 AM

I have a good idea! What about these types as starters:

Poison
Grass
Ground

Care to elaborate on any reasons as to why?

Because I would like to see something different than grass, water and fire.

I think the combination of Fire, Water and Grass is a classic with Pokemon and if it were up to me I would leave things the same. Your choices are smartly thought out though - all of them being strong to one type and weak against the other.

But that still includes grass. It could be Flying, Fighting, and Rock. This is because it completes the cycle of beat one and weak against one... Also, Psychic, Dark, and Fighting work. xD But I doubt they'd change it, it's tradition!

EDIT: I. Got. Ninja'd again. D: Well, whatever.

Psychic, Dark and Fighting does sound like an interesting prospect. I certainly would love to play a Pokemon game that includes this starter trio.

One maaaaajor change :

MAKE AN ALL NEW PLOT !

Aren't you all bored of the 10 yyear kid getting its Fire Water or Grass Starter (this however shouldn't be changed) from Prof. (tree) and then to head out on an adventure to become the Champ , meet Team (any evil name team) then stop them .

SOmething changed , like how the PMD Games introduced something new . Maybe you were an old trainer , maybe an ex prof and now you restart your adventure , or at least make no prof ... I just wanna have an all new original storyline .

Also Hoenn Remakes , customisable trainers and even cutscenes ! :]

King! January 17th, 2010 9:06 AM

If you made an all new plot, it would be kind of like a spin-off game, right? The only difference would be the new Pokemon. But, if you were talking about the same collect badges and fight league and stuff but without the evil team and something else, then I suppose it could work. But the evil team is different every time almost, like, a different sstory with them, so is it really necessary? An ex-professor would work, or a new professor, but it wouldn't be that different, as you're still getting a new Pokemon from someone.

Customisable trainers and cutscenes would be cool, especially thye first one, but the Hoenn remakes aren't reall necessary either, because they aren't really nostalgic, and are still on a somewhat recent system.

Pokéthan January 17th, 2010 9:07 AM

I like the whole older person is called out to help.... Maybe take the storyline of PokeMon 2000 where they have to save the world??

Some of these things you mentioned really don't keep with the heritage of a Pokemon games. First of all, does that age of a character really matter? I mean, when I play as a character, I take notice of the way he acts and how he looks, not his age. You guys have to understand that Pokemon is aimed at people of all ages. Once you take the aspect that attracts younger people into playing, namely the main character being young, then Nintendo will lose quite a bit of money as one of their biggest markets are younger people and they need something to relate to unless they'll lose interest.

Plus, IMHO I think the plot is just fine. Albeit a FEW changes are needed, but nothing major. I still love the "New Trainer sets out, gets his starter, gets 8 badges ( Should maybe increase to maybe 10 badges), defeats evil syndicate, and become the Pokemon League Champion" Plot

Hozzey January 19th, 2010 1:03 AM

I would like some originality for starters the urm.. starters should be another type like Normal, Ghost and Fighting or something. And for some reason I'm obsessed with wanting a Zebra and Dolphin Pokemon. It should also be in like a tropical region and the possibilities of going to Johto, Kanto, Orre, Hoenn or Sinnoh. Most hoping Kanto or Orre as they are my favourites :D Possibly bring back Team Rocket or Magma and Aqua as its kind of gay if each region has its own Villianous groups!

But to be honest I don't really see a Gen 5 since they made a God and everything! I probably wouldn't buy it ether as it would be probably be gay. As the games seem to get worst each generation.

Serene Grace January 19th, 2010 11:32 AM

A tropical region, like the Orange Islands in the anime, wouldn't be such a bad location. The only problem that I can see straight away is that the amount of surfing needed to get from island to island would get boring after a while. Although, this can be overcome by making surfing even faster.

Normal, Ghost and Fighting
...This has already been said and its also been said that that triangle WONT work.

Normal doesn't affect Ghost and Ghost doesn't affect Normal >>

Pokéthan January 19th, 2010 12:43 PM

IF there was a new DS on the horizon then maybe the cartridges would be big enough to hold ALL regions?? I like the orange islands idea! Also a game that follows the anime more closer... Maybe a DS game called PokeMon: Indigo League or something?

Or doing little cut scenes between each island, like using the boat between the Sevi Islands.

GoldvsRed January 19th, 2010 1:36 PM

Nobody seems to notice that Ice-Ground-Steel would be a cycle, too. Also, I'd like the storyline to stay the same. It'd just be too different, and I actually like the Pokemon traditions. I'd like Gym Leaders/Elite Four/Team Bosses/Other important NPCs to appear more often, even outside of the Gym/League/Hideout/Other areas, perhaps for rematches or whatever. Fighting Professors would be really fun, like what they WERE going to do in R/G/B.

Charmageddon January 20th, 2010 11:58 AM

Ice/Ground/Steel does not work the other way round. And neither does Dark/Psychic/Fighting!

Your right, Ice/Ground/Steel wouldn't work.

But Dark/Psychic/Fighting will:

Fighting Super-Effective against Dark, Dark Super-Effective against Psychic, and Psychic Super-Effective against Fighting

I believe we should keep it Fire>Grass>Water

DGexe January 20th, 2010 12:10 PM

Psychic > Fighting > Dark would be a nice change from the usual Grass > Water > Fire... But heck, I wouldn't think it a huge loss if Nintendo and Game Freak did the usual trio we're so familiar with.

You know what I would like to see, however? More ghost types; either original or more evos/prevos (preferably ORIGINAL, however)... I want more ghosts. There's only like... what... 14 ghost types total? *checks*

EDIT: 18, not including different form changes (Rotom, Giratina), 17 if you discount Arceus' use of Spooky Plate

Agreed

And more Grass-types too

Ice-Types beat Ground-Types, Ground-Types beat Steel-Types, and Steel-Types beat Ice-Types. It should still remain as the classic G-F-W, though.

Definitely agree. I want to see more ghost types for sure. I'd also love to see a new powerful, high attack Dark type move.
